Voting with your wallet doesn’t work when you are the product. They don’t care about your money when google’s will dwarf any amount individuals could hope to raise, even collectively. Nothing prevents them from just taking both your money and google’s and changing absolutely nothing.

yeah those fucking .ml losers. suggesting that there are circumstances where half-measures are worse than nothing at all.

congratulations on your antibiotic resistant MRSA. make sure to spread it around so everyone else gets to enjoy the benefits of your inadequate treatment.

im sure they’re reading this. pumping their fists at your defense of their inadequacy.

why dont you go get a staph infection and take only half your antibiotic course. surely something is better than nothing at all, right? tell me how that works out for you.

Email me the blueprints to your house, your address, name, and your favorite hobbies and I will tell you the answer.

my dude nobody is using a stolen identity to go to a bar. they’re taking out lines of credit and you don’t have to always present a physical, photo ID for those because there are entire industries of creditors that have no physical location. you don’t even seem to be aware of the reasons why someone would bother stealing someone’s identity so if you’d like to continue this argument I invite you to have it with yourself.

edit: and MAJOR lol at using a bar as your example. establishments well known for being sticklers about the quality of fake IDs you “sweet summer child”

this “you’d have to make a fake to use it!!” argument is especially ridiculous when you’ve posted on a story about submitting a picture of your photo ID in place of a physical one. and one of the pieces of info you say actually “matters” is literally written on said ID

If you think about it, Luigi had far more compassion than the man he killed. Pretty quick and painless; compared to the outcomes of our healthcare system.

Lmao they source the photos from LinkedIn profiles. I’m sure that didn’t bias their training at all. Yes sir there’s no chance this thing is selecting for anything but facial features.

Edit: double lmao they’re all MBAs

Edit2: they didn’t even train the AI!! this paper is them just feeding linkedin photos into a third-party black-box API and then nodding thoughtfully at the results. i cant tell you how stupid the AI is because I can’t find any information about it or even the API mentioned in the paper.

These terms mean very specific things but because you don’t know what those things are you think I’m being vague and biased. You should probably just shut up.

How is taking direct action to stigmatize someone who is enabling our fascist military “slacktivism”? What do you propose would be a more fitting and effective tactic for someone who doesn’t want their work associated in any way to the US military?

That sounds like a pretty useless replacement for people who want a declarative configuration and a PC capable of doing anything other than contributing code to open source projects.

it wasn’t just the keyboard for me. phone browsers pre iphone were just absolute garbage with joke rendering engines. you were lucky to get a functional mobile site, let alone trying to render the desktop version. iphone was using the same rendering engine as desktop safari, which wasn’t perfect but miles better than whatever the hell blackberry or sidekick were using.

what? i absolutely wanted a cell phone with a decent web browser on it in 2007, are you high?

Aren’t they insured by Tesla because no other insurance company will touch them?

The best is unironically to pirate and use something like Kodi on a SBC that can run libreElec.

I bet he was given the measles vaccine.

After Crapo (R-Idaho) rose to stop the bill from advancing, he and Sanders had a brief exchange in which the Republican agreed to working on achieving the “outcome” of the federal healthcare program covering dental, vision, and hearing

Seems phrased in a very non committal way. Gives the impression he’s not gonna vote for the bill, but will keep saying it’s because the bill is what’s bad, not its objective.

Few, if any, people posting shit to that site have the rights to what they’re posting but I guess copyright doesn’t matter unless youre pirating media.

Article says it’s a DoS but probably means DDoS because nobody does just a vanilla DoS anymore (they’re easy to block). No VPN is going to let you use their service to do a DDoS, setting aside the technical and logistical problems for attempting it, it doesn’t really do anything useful for a DDoS.

DDoS attacks aren’t possible to IP trace, they come from a wide range of compromised devices forming a bot net that runs on IP blocks spanning multiple different areas all over the world, making them impossible to distinguish from legitimate traffic. The only way to catch who is responsible for a DDoS is to find the botnet’s control surface (usually something like an IRC channel) and gain access to it yourself. Not likely unless you find the malware that created the bot net and pull it apart looking for a reference to the control system.

TL;DR: Elon musk is full of shit there’s no fucking way he knows where this attack originated from based on IP addresses because it probably didn’t use one easily blockable and identifiable IP range.
